[lttng-dev] Event redefinition/re-enablement

[Ruslan Uvashev]

Hi,

It seems that event once enabled for a channel cannot be reassigned to
another channel.
If events are immutable will Feature #445 (https://bugs.lttng.org/issues/445)
 account such situation? Or do we need to update man saying that events
cannot be redefined?

Command output below.

Thank you!


Output:

$ sudo lttng create tst1
Session tst1 created.
Traces will be written in /home/rusty/lttng-traces/tst1-20140315-173020
$ sudo lttng enable-event writeback_nothread -k
Kernel event writeback_nothread created in channel channel0
$ sudo lttng enable-channel ch1 -k

$ sudo lttng list tst1
